Sweet 80s

The morning passed quickly.

Li Ruzheng packed his luggage, and as the train slowly slowed down, he reluctantly said goodbye to several people in the carriage.

Wang Shuping watched him walk out of the exit through the car window, but no one came during the whole process.

She recalled the first time she came to Nanhe City from the Northeast as if it were yesterday.

The Lin family has a large family of men, women, young and old. Even the elderly Lin’s father and mother who rarely go out will come to the station to pick them up in person.

And every time his family came from the Northeast, no matter how busy Lin Xiangdong was, he would always be there even if he had to turn down work and take a leave.

A small detail can reveal a big picture.

Whether you attach importance to something or not cannot be expressed with words, but depends on actions.

The green train travels through time, crosses mountains and rivers, carrying the dreams and hopes of countless people, and sending them to their loved ones one by one.

At this moment, Wang Shuping sincerely hopes that Li Ruzheng's unfortunate fate can be like this train and arrive at his final destination safely and smoothly.

Just as she was lost in thought, Dabao shook her arm.

"Mom, I want to take my brother out for a walk."

During the few days on the bus, the children were really suffocated.

When at home, of the two sons, the second son spends more time at home, while the eldest son is always running around and playing.

It is not easy to wait quietly and peacefully for several days.

Wang Shuping nodded in agreement.

"Okay, don't run around, just walk around the aisles and the restaurant. Don't get out of the car, remember!"

Dabao was still reliable. He nodded vigorously several times.

After Li Ruzheng left, there was no one of his age to talk to in the carriage, so Yan Shengnan took the initiative to take on the responsibility of taking care of his younger brother.

"Aunt, let me take them there. My back hurts from sitting for so long..."

When Dabao heard the other party talking about his back pain, he immediately retorted.

"Sister Nan Nan, you are talking about back pain, not waist pain."

Yan Shengnan didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

"Children have no waists, my dad said so."

Yan Shengnan laughed a few times, and put his hands on his waist: "If this is not a waist, what is it, a butt?"

Wang Shuping rolled her eyes speechlessly at Dabao and turned to Yan Shengnan.

"Nannan, don't pay attention to him. Your uncle has remembered the jokes he made to him for so long, but he has been studying for half a year. How could he forget them during the exam? What do you think if you..."

Hearing that Wang Shuping was about to start nagging again, Dabao grabbed Erbao and ran out.

Wang Shuping chased him to the door of the carriage, held the door frame with both hands and continued to talk to him.

"You don't like to hear it when I tell you. Next time you fail the test, watch out for your butt!"

Yang Huiying stopped the angry Wang Shuping.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. If a child is talented, he will become successful even if you don't care about him. If he doesn't have that kind of luck, it's a waste of effort to beat him and make him go backwards."

Wang Shuping smiled bitterly and sighed.

"That's the truth, but they really let it go. With Dabao's personality, he really dares to make trouble."

Yang Huiying smiled and said, "Haha~ I can see that this child is naughty, but naughty children are smart and like to use their brains to think about things. In the future..."

Wang Shuping turned sideways to face Yang Huiying, and she was halfway through her words when the other party suddenly stopped talking.

She turned around and went back to the carriage without knowing why. As the aisle was narrow, she bumped into the chest of the person behind her when she turned around.

Before she could even raise her head, Wang Shuping apologized repeatedly.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

"fine."

Wang Shuping looked at the man.

He is a man about thirty years old, tall and strong, with a handsome face and regular features.

The man raised the ticket in his hand and walked in after repeatedly confirming the serial number on the carriage.

Yang Huiying stared at the man's face, muttering something to herself.

After the man was sure, he put the bag on the ground.

After Yang Huiying finished talking to herself, she quickly pulled out her package from under the bed to make room for the other person.

"Here, put it here."

After saying that, the man waved his hand: "No need."

Then, he swiftly climbed onto the bed, placed the luggage bag in front of his feet, and lay down to rest with his eyes closed.

Yang Huiying winked at Wang Shuping, then took two steps forward, pulled her to sit down, and started talking in private.

She lowered her voice and whispered in Wang Shuping's ear.

"He is a difficult person to talk to. His complexion is dark and his eyes are dull. There are prison lines on his face. Be careful of him."

Wang Shuping didn't think much about it at first, but after hearing what Yang Huiying said, she immediately became suspicious.

"It's only two days away anyway, so I'll just ignore him."

Yang Huiying seemed to have thought of something, and she took out a rolling pin from her bed and hid it under Wang Shuping's bedding.

"I'm getting off the bus early tomorrow morning, so I won't need this anymore. Keep it for self-defense."

"Need not..."

Wang Shuping was about to refuse when the other party held her hand down.

"Keep it. It's best if you don't need it. If you think it's in the way before you get off the bus, just throw it away. It's not worth much."

Wang Shuping thought for a few seconds and finally nodded in agreement.

Gala, gala.

The sound of metal wheels rubbing against each other came from a distance.

The train salesman pushed a mobile sales cart past, shouting out the contents and brands of the goods.

"Beer, drinks, mineral water, peanuts, melon seeds, ham, come on, close your legs..."

This small car would make countless trips back and forth every day. Wang Shuping remembers that cigarettes were also sold on the car.

She looked up at the man on the upper bunk opposite her, wondering if he would come down to buy cigarettes.

Not long after, the salesperson appeared in front of the carriage pushing a cart.

"Instant noodles, eight-treasure porridge, and various brands of cigarettes, Liangyou, Hongmei, Daqianmen, Yingchun, Mango, Golden Leaf..."

When the salesperson saw the man in the car, he deliberately stopped and waited for a few seconds. Seeing that the man did not move, he pushed the cart away.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wang Shuping glanced at the man again. She was not sure whether he was really asleep or pretending to be asleep, but he remained motionless.

On the other side, Yan Shengnan led his two younger brothers and kept walking forward, not knowing where to go.

Erbao asked doubtfully: "Where are we going?"

"I don't know either. Let's just go wherever we can." Yan Shengnan replied.

Dabao's eyes rolled around a few times, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

"Sister, let's walk from one side of the train to the other to see how long the train is and what's on it, okay?"

This is a good idea.

Yan Shengnan agreed readily.

The three of them just kept walking down the aisle.

They went from the hard seat area to the soft seat compartment, then to the restaurant, passing one toilet after another.

Although the carriage numbers were different throughout the journey, the environment seen within the field of vision was exactly the same.

Not long after they walked out, the three people's curiosity was completely worn out.

Erbao was exhausted, his face sweating as he lowered his head and asked, "I don't want to go anymore. When are we going back?"

Dabao was also a little frustrated and complained, "It's all the same walking around. It's not fun at all."

Yan Shengnan spread his hands: "I also think it's boring, why don't we go back."

"Okay!" Dabao said, took Erbao's hand and walked back with his head held high.

When the three of them passed by the train restaurant, it was just dinner time.

The fragrant smell of food in the restaurant wafts out from time to time.

There are also many more diners than at other times.

When passing by several tables that looked delicious, Erbao swallowed and stopped.

"Why don't you leave?" Yan Shengnan asked.

Erbao let go of his brother's hand, crossed a narrow road, and leaned on the car window in front of him to look out.

"I'm tired, let me take a break."

Dabao raised his eyebrows and walked over, holding Erbao's hand: "Why can't we rest anywhere else? We have to rest here..."

He caught a glimpse of the delicious food on other people's tables and his mouth was watering with envy. He couldn't help but gulp it down.

"Hurry back and eat the steamed buns, sesame cakes, salted duck eggs and pickled vegetables that our mother brought."

"I do not want!"

Erbao shook off Dabao's hand.

"I also want to eat...um...that, that meat!"

Dabao looked in the direction that Erbao pointed.

A young couple dressed in gorgeous and fashionable clothes had a table filled with delicious food.

Twice-cooked pork, shredded pork with fish flavor, Kung Pao chicken, and mapo tofu.

Most of the people who dare to order food like this on the train are rich.

The two of them ate with gusto, and the three children drooled as they watched.

Dabao glared at him and asked, "What kind of meat are you eating? Do you have money?"

Erbao couldn't bear it anymore and retorted: "I don't have money, but mom does."

"Then you have to go back to the carriage and ask our mother for it. Let's go quickly." Dabao urged again.

Seeing that the other party was reluctant to move, Yan Shengnan tried to persuade him earnestly.

"Erbao, don't be greedy. This is nothing. When we get to the station, I'll ask your fourth aunt to treat you to a big meal. We'll have chicken, duck, fish, pork, beef, and mutton. You can eat as much as you want!"

Erbao thought about it for a moment and finally figured it out.

The three of them just moved forward a few steps.

Suddenly, a familiar male voice appeared behind them and called out to them.

"Two treasures."

The two boys turned around and looked.

Yan Shengnan, who was walking in front, also heard it.

But the moment she turned around and looked at that person, her body suddenly tensed up, she felt a chill down her spine, and a wave of infinite fear spread throughout her body.

In an instant, it seemed as if the air in the entire restaurant froze...
